Answer 1

This is an old question but I just ran into the same thing and since I couldn't find an answer, here is what I did to get it to work:

1) Set up the %Catalina Home%/conf/tomcat-users.xml file with something like this:

<role rolename="ide"/>
<user password="secret" roles="manager-script" username="ide"/>

Where ide is the username and secret the password used in the server configuration in Netbeans.

2) Set JAVA_HOME and/or JRE_HOME environment variables in Windows

3) Run Netbeans as Administrator . There might be a way around this, but this works for me. If not run as Administrator the Tomcat startup.bat will be run as a restricted user which results in no permission to write log files etc. and then fails to deploy the webapp.
